For the day after Thanksgiving, our family took a walk in the woods at Kensington Metro Park near Milford, Michigan.
It was the perfect way to enjoy the afternoon: relatively warm autumn weather, bright sunshine, and an escape from the constant Black Friday sales promotions.
Not many birds to be seen, the regulars for late fall/early winter: Black-capped Chickadees, White-breasted Nuthatches, Red-tailed Hawk, Sandhill Cranes, Mallard Ducks, Downy Woodpecker, Flicker, Great Blue Heron, Canada Geese, and Tufted Titmouse.
But it was lovely to see the grasses and weeds in autumn, before they lose all their leaves and turn brown.
